The bigger issue might be, why do you have a hole in your radiator?
I don't have a hole in it. But there is a light coloured plastic bung in a hole in the top left hand side (if standing in front of the car) where I assumed the temp sender is meant to go.

Kinda :P

The big question is, what is it not doing?
So maybe I've been looking at the wrong diagrams for this but basically, the electric fan never comes on. I was expecting to hear it on a low setting the other day when stuck in traffic when we had those particularly hot days. But nothing. Now I just assumed that the temp probe/sender/sensor that is connected to that relay was meant to be in the radiator. But I'm wrong? If it isn't, where is it?
